RIP School Survival Forums
August 2001 - June 2017
The School Survival Forums are permanently retired. If you need help with quitting school, unsupportive parents or anything else, there is a list of resources on the Help Page.
If you want to write about your experiences in school, you can write on our blog.
To everyone who joined these forums at some point, and got discouraged by the negativity and left after a while (or even got literally scared off): I'm sorry.
I wasn't good enough at encouraging people to be kinder, and removing people who refuse to be kind. Encouraging people is hard, and removing people creates conflict, and I hate conflict... so that's why I wasn't better at it.
I was a very, very sensitive teen. The atmosphere of this forum as it is now, if it had existed in 1996, would probably have upset me far more than it would have helped.
I can handle quite a lot of negativity and even abuse now, but that isn't the point. I want to help people. I want to help the people who need it the most, and I want to help people like the 1996 version of me.
I'm still figuring out the best way to do that, but as it is now, these forums are doing more harm than good, and I can't keep running them.
Thank you to the few people who have tried to understand my point of view so far. I really, really appreciate you guys. You are beautiful people.
Everyone else: If after everything I've said so far, you still don't understand my motivations, I think it's unlikely that you will. We're just too different. Maybe someday in the future it might make sense, but until then, there's no point in arguing about it. I don't have the time or the energy for arguing anymore. I will focus my time and energy on people who support me, and those who need help.

Please do not make a mirror copy of the forums in their current state - things will still change, and some people have requested to be able to edit or delete some of their personal info.

Yes, it indeed is here to makes us think.
It does quite a great job in making me think... it makes me think of horrible things... visions of dead people... rotting corpses... and spoiled milk...

Sorry, but I'm only a slow worker because I value the sleep I've been getting since I got out of high school this year.
Oh, I understand completely. Now my mom is nagging me about getting a job, and losing benefits, yadda yadda. I really couldn't care less because my dad and her are like trying to "help me out", and where were they when I was against school and wanted homeschooling?
They put me throw a lot of shit, so I'm just going to ignore them and do whatever the fuck I want. I'm done listening to incompetency.
You sound like a incompetent prick yourself.
Obvious troll is obvious. Tell me, did you signup on this website just to chastise us on how school is actually good for us? If so, you're just wasting your time here and ours. :rolleyes:
Seven crappy hours of our lives.

So, do you want to do this or not?...Please send a PM and tell me if you're willing or not. I will probably give you 24 hours to send the PM. No PM will indicate to me that, no, you don't want to do things in this new way. So, you will be saying goodbye."

Samon isn't a word. Salmon is. We should make a slang term for salmon.

What is a person? Is it their material flesh or "soul"/personality(would you look at that)?
I see dead bodies once belonging to a person. Now its just rotting flesh.
